Hello everyone! I'm planning to apply to the University of Central Florida and was wondering if anyone knows what SAT score I should aim for? I know test-optional is big now, but just trying to cover all my bases.
For the University of Central Florida (UCF), the middle 50% SAT scores for admitted students normally range between 1270 and 1390. These values represent the 25th and 75th percentile of scores for admitted students, meaning that 25% of students score below this range and 25% score above it.
However, remember that colleges look at more than just your test scores. Your GPA, extracurricular activities, essays, and recommendation letters also play significant roles in the decision process.
Also, note that UCF is not test-optional and you have to submit your SAT (or ACT or CLT) scores. All freshmen must submit official scores.
Remember, preparing for the SAT is still beneficial as it prepares you for the academic rigors of college, and a good score can potentially enhance your application profile if submitted. However, don't stress too much over it. Your overall application package will speak volumes about you as a candidate. Good luck with your application!
